China which have followed upon the reduction of the fortress of Twingiau, and the military occupa tion of the territory by the Japanese, is the decision of the Chinese Government to make Langkow a treaty port. The bald announcement in the telt- -gram · seems to us strange. because Langkow was one of seven northern ports voluntarily opened to foreign trade by the Chinese Government just a little mors than twelve months ago. Six of the ports thus opened ore in Inner Mongolis-Langkow, in Shantung, making, the seventh. At the time it was generally under- stood that this step had been taken to counteract Japanese politics! ambitions, though officially, of course, the reason for opening the ports was stated to be the Govern- ments wish to see the trade of the country developed. These places were then described as trade marts; places voluntarily opened to international trade. In auch places the control remains in the hands of the Chinese. Presumably, the meaning of the Istest announcement is that Lung- kow has now been put precisely on the same footing as Chefoo. Nowohwang or any other of the best known international trading centres-i..., Treaty porte China.
